Should Tottenham look at the 25-year-old midfield powerhouse?

Mauricio Pochettino has plenty of options available to him in the middle of the park, but it must be a real concern for the Argentine that key man Mousa Dembele is set to turn 31 in July.

The Belgian is so important to the way in which Tottenham play, and although he is now at his peak physically, it will not be long before he starts to begin the downward spiral in terms of his ability.

Kondogbia possesses the kind of attributes that would make him the ideal long-term replacement for Dembele, what with his fantastic engine that enables him to get up and down the pitch, and impact the game both defensively and offensively.

For the reported fee of just £22 million, he would be a real steal, and would provide Spurs with that little bit of physicality in the middle of the park that they sometimes lack.
